Women, Gender, and Sexuality Programs of Study

Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies prepares students to utilize feminist methodologies, sexuality studies and approaches to examine and enrich other disciplines in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences and the arts. Our goal is to help students see the ways in which gender is being thought about and practiced, as well as to help them develop their own analytical skills to evaluate, assess and imagine differently. A student who majors in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies will gain a strong liberal arts background linked to a range of practical experiences. Graduates may pursue advanced training and degrees in the arts, humanities, social sciences, or law or pursue work in the private sphere, government, social services, and women's and transgendered advocacy programs.
